This
is released, in tiny quantities like all P2 rosés – for the moment
anyway. Although I suppose this could change if the house decides to
increase the production of Dom Pérignon rosé. The color is pale rose
pink with just a hint of blue – in fact it almost looks younger than the
2004 first release tasted alongside it. Still reasonably vigorous bead.
Haunting, warm nose - super-complex with rose petals and a hint of dill
pickle - that gives way to a rather coy, super-fruity palate that ends
bone dry. Smells of warm vegetables - tomatoes?! Masses of appetizing
development. Great, throat-warming finish. Delicate. Lacy texture. Very
fine, though so delicate that it would need careful food matching. Very
pretty and complex with strawberry notes. Textured and intellectual.
